[I'm gonna change some of the time-line/events, so it will not be in order]

There was an appropriate amount of silence given to them, let the two cherish the reunion they had wanted. Not quite 'cherish', maybe just a chance for communication. It seems the two had forgotten about the third presence watching them.

"Are you going back?" Mukuro asked him; his voice was silent and composed, his figure still hadn't moved from the hug; even if it was already released.

Tsuna looked at him, his orange coloured eyes died down, swiftly turning into his all too familiar blue jewel eyes. Mukuro's eyes averted at the change, his lips quirking up into a sly smirk as if he had found something new to be his amusement. Mukuro tilted his head backwards, "Isn't that a bit bold? Using flames in-front of a being that holds none of what you have."

The man pointed at Max; the knight let out an awkward grin. It seems that he didn't even hear what Mukuro had said.

"The rule of Omerta? Would that even be relevant here?" Tsuna defended. He doubts the arcobaleno who created it would even be born for the second time. At least, he hopes not. Besides, he denies Max would question much; just a lie should mislead him.

Mukuro chuckled, "Carefree now, aren't you Tsunayoshi? We never know what that man is planning."

'Kawahira...' Tsuna hadn't heard anything from the mist user after this incident started, and what Mukuro is saying is a fair point. Tsuna sigh, "Yes, of course. We never know." It came out more bitter than he planned. It was always like this, an unpredictable future. The same reason they always say regarding his family's death, an unpredictable future.

"You being salty is quite a show Tsunayoshi." His voice lets out a low emitting chuckle once again, which Tsuna hates. He would like for Mukuro to stop teasing his character change after years and years, was it that contrasting? He didn't think so.

"Mukuro-san, what you asked before, shouldn't I be the one to ask you that? Are you going back?" Tsuna paused and continued inside, 'To me?'

"That's funny, where else would I go?"

"Umm, Your Highness? Is he going to the castle with us? The criminal?" Max had finally brought himself to remember who the man is, a couple of minutes ago. He felt the urge to facepalm himself, no wonder Max was a little daze at the strange hairstyle.

Max was still a bit perplexed because this was the man that attempted an attack toward the royalties and the one whom just sent him and the prince a couple of low-level bandits. And now, the prince had both hugged him and summon him to be one of his guards. Even the king would pass out at the thought.

"Is there a problem?" The prince asked, knowing very well he holds the higher authority between the three of them. Thus, Max wouldn't be able to go against it. His last hope is the king; maybe the king would disapprove at this.

Max sighs, he looked at the man walking comfortably beside the prince on top of his ride; Max felt as if he had switched position. Shouldn't he be the one observing the prince? He feels as if he's lazing around by doing nothing. He couldn't help but pout out of frustration.

"Tsunayoshi, don't you think this guy is not needed?"

'What did I do wrong this time?' Max felt attacked, he couldn't help but scoffs back, "Pardon?"

(Max: "Fight me biatch)

"Should I send him off? It would be easy and quick." Mukuro continued speaking bluntly, not caring about the other's furious expression.
